What is the difference between Lathmar Holi and Phoolon wali Holi in Vrindavan? Both are incredibly special but very different experiences and honestly if you can attend both you should. Lathmar Holi happens in Barsana and Nandgaon, the villages connected to Radha and Krishna. Women playfully beat men with sticks called lathis while men protect themselves with shields. It is loud, energetic, colorful and deeply rooted in local tradition. The energy there is something you cannot describe in words. Phoolon wali Holi happens at Banke Bihari temple in Vrindavan where priests shower devotees with flower petals instead of colors. It is more spiritual, gentler and visually stunning. Great for families, elders and anyone who wants the devotional side of Holi. Both happen on different days so planning your trip around both is very much possible. Most groups traveling from NCR book a Tempo Traveller on rent in Gurgaon to cover both locations comfortably in one trip. https://www.tempotravellergurgaon.com/ #holitrip2026 #gurgaontovrindavan #vrindavanholi2026 #lathmarholi #phoolowaliholi #tempotravellergurgaon #grouptripgurgaon #holi2026 #mathuraholi #gurgaontomathura

How to plan a Holi trip from Delhi to Mathura by Tempo Traveller? Planning a Holi trip to Mathura from Delhi is easier than most people think. If you plan it the right way. First, fix your date. Holi 2026 falls on 4th March. But Vrindavan celebrations start 5–7 days earlier with Lathmar Holi and Phoolon Wali Holi. So, plan accordingly based on what your group wants to experience. Start early from Delhi, ideally by 5 AM. Mathura is 145 km away and Holi day traffic builds up fast after 8 AM. Cover Vrindavan first, then Mathura Dwarkadheesh Temple by afternoon. Return comfortably by evening. Carry light clothes you don't mind getting coloured, cash for offerings, and water. ATMs near temples get crowded on Holi day. For a group of 8 or more, the easiest way is booking a tempo traveller on rent in Delhi as one vehicle, shared cost, door-to-door comfort and zero parking stress. Booking available at: https://delhitempotravels.com/ Book 4 to 6 weeks before Holi. #holi2026 #mathuraholi #vrindavanholi #delhitomathura #lathmarholi #holitrip2026 #tempotravellerdelhi #grouptripdelhi #delhitempotravels #phoolowaliholi
